Outreach

“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view. Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it”

– Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

I am keen to promote mathematics amongst underrepresented groups in STEM. I have an incipient YouTube channel where I discuss various mathematics (and related) topics emphasising, where possible, a non-western point of view. I hope also to include more personal content about my own mathematics journey

I am happy to speak about this to high school and primary school students. If you would like to get in touch, then please do send me an email at feyisayo.olukoya@gmail.com.

Activities

I, together with a colleague at St Andrews, recently sponsored, a summer project as part of a scheme to help undergraduate students further enhance their graduate attributes. The students were tasked with producing resources to help a willing sceptic learn more about why the mathematics curriculum needs to be decolonised, and what they can do about it

The students did a fantastic job on this and here is a link to their final output.
